Mayfield stirs OU-Texas rivalry, rips QB Ehlinger

Baker Mayfield might be a rising star for the Cleveland Browns in the NFL, but he will never leave the Red River Rivalry behind him.

In an appearance Wednesday on Sportstalk 1400 in Norman, Mayfield, who won the 2017 Heisman Trophy while at Oklahoma, was ready to trash-talk Texas and Longhorns quarterback Sam Ehlinger.

Mayfield was asked about the perception in preseason publications that Texas is back and could contend for a national championship.

"They said the same thing when they beat Notre Dame a couple of years ago, and they won like three games after that," Mayfield said.
